'MAES, as our members affectionately know it, organises an annual lecture programme for members. Well-known Egyptologists have always been included in the list of our speakers, but we have always encouraged our own members to provide lectures and talks on their own specialist subjects. Many of our members have gone on to become established lecturers in their own right and now give talks to other Egyptian societies in the UK. Lectures begin at 7.45 pm prompt, but you can come along from 6.30 pm onwards and talk to other members.'

'We usually meet on the third Friday of the month ... Our meetings begin at 8.00 pm, but you are invited to come in about 7.30 pm, to take your seat and meet other members ... You do not need any formal qualifications in Egyptology to come to any of our meetings, but just an interest for the subject ... We make an entrance charge ...'

Now meet in Chesterfield and Nottingham: 'The SSAE MAIN Society has a membership scheme which offers 6 lectures a year from leading figures in the field of Archaeology and Egyptology ... The SSAE LOCAL group came about as a desire of those who wanted more Egyptology. It started essentially as "in house" presentations by members and has evolved into a substantial offering of events'

Monthly lectures, Saturday afternoons: 'Lectures will be split into two sessions with free refreshments served in the break. All lectures commence promptly at 2 pm and each meeting will conclude around 4.30 pm.' ... Meetings are 'open to members and visitors alike'.

'We hold monthly meetings on the first Wednesday of every month, where invited guest speakers deliver talks on a range of Egyptological topics ... Talks cover a huge range of topics and are illustrated, we are able to attract famous egyptologists who talk about their latest research or exploration. There is always time for questions for our speakers or an informal chat afterwords. We encourage our members to share their interests with us during members evenings where they are encouraged to give short talks on all things Egyptian.'
